Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here.IHG is currently offering a promotion where you can earn 10,000 bonus points when staying at nine new properties and nine featured properties. TPG’s latest valuation pegs the value of these points at $60, but you might value this bonus even higher since 10k points are enough for two nights at a 5,000-point PointsBreaks property or one night at a Category 1 property.The DetailsThis promotion is pretty straightforward. There aren’t any terms or conditions, but here are the details:Book the 10,000 Bonus Points rate and stay two or more nights at an eligible property to get 10,000 IHG points.The promotion doesn’t list a maximum number of points that can be earned.Stays must be booked by Dec. 31, 2018. The stay must be completed by Jan. 31, 2019.Rooms booked under the 10,000 Bonus Points rate usually offer free cancellation until one day before check-in.Click through from the promotion page at this link, as otherwise the promotional rate will not show up and you won’t receive the bonus points. You may need to logout of your IHG account to see the eligible properties, but you can login once you click through to a particular property.Eligible PropertiesThe following 18 properties are eligible:California: Holiday Inn Windsor – Wine CountryColorado: Staybridge Suites Denver DowntownDelaware: Holiday Inn Express Bethany BeachFlorida: Hotel Indigo SarasotaNorth Carolina: Holiday Inn & Suites Arden- Asheville AirportOklahoma: Avid Oklahoma City – Quail SpringsMaryland: Crowne Plaza BaltimoreMassachusetts: Holiday Inn Boston Logan Airport – ChelseaMinnesota: InterContinental Minneapolis – St. Paul AirportNew York: Crowne Plaza Times Square ManhattanPennsylvania: Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh – Technology CenterTennessee: Holiday Inn Express & Suites Memphis Airport - Elvis Presley BlvdTexas: Holiday Inn & Suites ShenandoahTexas: Staybridge Suites Houston - Humble Beltway 8 EWashington: Crowne Plaza Seattle–DowntownWashington, DC: InterContinental Washington D.C. – The WharfCanada: Holiday Inn Express & Suites Kelowna EastMexico: Crowne Plaza PueblaBe CarefulAlthough the promotion is for stays of two or more nights, some properties may require longer stays. This requirement isn’t stated, but I could only find the 10,000 Bonus Points rate for stays of three nights or longer at InterContinental Hotels like the Minneapolis - St. Paul Airport. And, the rates for the 10,000 Bonus Points rate are generally much higher than other refundable rates.Likewise, I only found the 10,000 Bonus Points rate for stays of three nights or longer at Avid Oklahoma City – Quail Springs. The 10,000 Bonus Points rate wasn’t competitive here either.Sign up for our daily newsletterEmail addressSign upI would like to subscribe to The Points Guy newsletters and special email promotions.

But, I didn’t find any properties offering the 10,000 Bonus Points rate for stays of two nights. And for the properties where I found the rate offered on three-night stays, it wasn’t competitive.I’d still recommend searching your travel dates if you’re planning to visit any of the cities with eligible properties before Jan. 31. But, I don’t expect this promotion will provide value unless someone else is paying for your hotel stay and you don’t mind making them pay a higher rate. If you do book a room through this promotion, use your IHG Rewards Premier Credit Card to earn 10 IHG points per dollar spent or your Chase Sapphire Reserve to earn 3 Ultimate Rewards points per dollar spent.H/T: Loyalty Lobby
